Sgt. Sivad Johnson is being remembered as a firefighter, a father, an artist and a storyteller.

He told a story about his experience as a Detroit firefighter in front of a live audience in 2018, which was titled “To Bravely Do or Bravely Die.” That is exactly what he did Friday night. 

Johnson died after trying to rescue two girls from drowning in the Detroit River Friday night, police said. His 10-year-old daughter dialed 911 after noticing that her father didn’t return from rescuing the girls. His body was recovered Saturday morning by the Detroit Police Department and Detroit Fire Department divers.
